Why is the Tesla Model Y still eligible for the eco-bonus in 2024?
The Tesla Model Y remains eligible for the ecological bonus in 2024, unlike the Tesla Model 3thanks to its German assembly plant. In fact, the French government has introduced a new rule for the ecological bonus in 2024, which excludes electric vehicles imported from China.
In fact, it is assembled at the Gigafactory plant in Berlin, Germany. This plant began producing the Model Y in 2021, and is expected to reach a production capacity of one million vehicles a year by 2025.
The French government has justified this new rule by its desire to support the European automotive industry. China is a major producer of electric vehicles, and the exclusion of Chinese vehicles from the ecological bonus is intended to protect European manufacturers from Chinese competition.
